Gaming hardware brand ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) has announced a two-year partnership DRX.

The deal will see the brand equip the South Korean esports organisation’s VALORANT and League of Legends rosters with products from its Ace Esports line-up.

Unveiled on January 26th, the collaboration also involves DRX players taking part in the testing of unreleased ASUS ROG products and providing feedback to ensure they meet the needs of esports athletes competing at the highest level.

In addition to the product development, the two parties will work together on a range of content initiatives, providing fans with insight into how professional players optimise their equipment and prepare for high-profile tournaments.

“Esports is where performance truly matters, where every click, every flick, and every decision can define the outcome,” said Kris Huang, General Manager of the ASUS Gaming and Workspace business unit.

“Partnering with DRX allows us to work directly with world-class players across multiple titles, gaining invaluable feedback that helps us refine the ROG Ace Esports product lineup.”

Over the past 12 months, ASUS ROG has continued expanding its presence within the esports industry through partnerships with organisations and tournament organisers. DRX now joins the likes of Team Vitality, NRG, and BLAST, all of whom joined hands with the hardware brand throughout 2025.

DRX in 2026

For DRX, collaborating with ASUS ROG is another notable addition to its partnership portfolio. Earlier this month, on January 6th, the organisation joined forces with Jalbonun St. Mary’s Eye Clinic to support the health and wellbeing of its players.

Apart from this, DRX is currently competing in the VCT Pacific Kickoff and the LCK Cup. Its VALORANT roster opened Kickoff with a defeat to FULL SENSE, setting up a mid-bracket match against VARREL on January 30th.

Meanwhile, the organisation’s League of Legends roster has struggled to start the year on the front foot. After two weeks of Group Battle matches, DRX sits at the bottom of Group Elder with a 1-3 record.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
